For download code, it checks to see if a package that is being downloaded satisfies the dependency. If so, it returns, otherwise it checks to see if an installed package satisfies the dependency. Should work out OK, if I did it right :)

Minor note: I was slightly wrong above. If the downloaded package does not satisfy the dependency, the installer does not check with the installed version, as once a package is considered downloadable, it will be installed, and therefore break the dependency relationship. I use "download" very loosely here, a local package explicitly passed on the command line is considered to be downloaded. Greg
